::of new year and nasty rashes::

Happy new year everyone~

that's new year for islamic calendar.

^_^

so, for the past two weeks i have this supposedly viral infection that causes nasty rashes on my neck,trunk and face.

oh dear.

well, the doctor thinks its a viral infection.i went to see three gps actually.
the first week, when the rashes was not so bad i went to see this one doctor just around my place, whose only comment was-ini bukan denggi. wth.
but to an extent, it was my fault.i should've insisted on a blood test.

and then when it got worse the following week (this week), i went to see another doctor who told me it might be eczema or psoriasis, but he cant be sure.i felt like crying.that thing lasts a lifetime as it will keep on re occurring and i'm talking about unsightly rashes at my face and not to mention the whole body.


so he referred me to a dermatologist at sjmc. So the following morning ejanne sent me to sjmc (sweetkan ejanne?!)BUT no dermatologists were in that day. wtf.

and.of course i was devastated. i mean, there i was with bloody itchy rashes all over my body and my face and i don't even know what it is. I mean, hey, if i at least know what it is that would be great.At least i would know what to do with it because anti-histamine do not effing work.


so, that night i went to see my aunty who is also a doctor.maybe she could refer me to other dermatologist.and she said, well that do not seem like psoriasis or eczema to me. that seems like a viral infection.and because anti histamine do not ease the itchiness and because i had sore throat the first two days that the rashes started to appear.So she said she'd do a blood test. but of course, it has been two weeks by then and of course, if it has been two weeks what do u expect to find huh?

haih.so today i think the rahses has stop spreading-not that there are much space left to spread to. But the itchiness has definitely subside a bit and them rashes are not as raised and not as red as before. So i hope it's just a viral infection and it is starting to heal.

Haih.i dont know. I would like to know what this is. I could go and see other doctors. but what can they do right? prescribe more anti-histamine,more calamine lotion, more emolient. One might go as far as to suggest a steroid shot. And i'm sure this is not an allergy.

I would like to go and see a dermatologist, in case this is really either eczema or psoriasis, but now that the thing is starting to subside, i have a strong feeling that it is just a viral infection. So seeing a dermatologist would be pointless.

However, if the rashes spread and still multiplies tomorrow, i'd definitely have to raise an alarm.
For now, seems like they're getting better. I think.


haih still.sedihlaa.
Imagine having rashes at ur face and neck and your whole body.spots and spots. Wouldnt you feel sad too?
And god knows how long it would take for the scars to disappear.
Shoot.sedih.sedih.
Dah lah tak tahu sebab ape.


wek.dah lah. malas nak stress. now i'm gonna do some reading and go to bed.

good night!~

buddy!

aku pon penah kene rashes mcm tu....3 doctor da jumpe pon mmg xde perubahan...

last2 aku minta consultation dari pharmacist n die bg 'Zyrtec'(tablet form) and 'Uniflex' (cream form)

tapi Zyrtec (anti-histamine type 1) ni just kawal rashes, bukan hilangkan utk forever

uniflex tu mmg lebih berkesan compare to 'calamine lotion'

buddy, get well soon!
